DYK Wrapped
Hi Leeky – quick question about DYK wrapped. Is there any easier/more automated way of curating the hook views in a month that I'm not aware of, or is it just what I had to do in terms of copying page names to wmtools and seeing the views on that day? Thanks! DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 11:14, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- @DimensionalFusion: i think Wikipedia:Did you know/Statistics/Monthly DYK pageview leaders is probably what you're looking for! And thank you from bringing back the DYK wrapped (: theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 11:18, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- ... did you really copy a couple hundred articles into WM tools to try and find the top five? theleekycauldron (talk • she/her) 11:19, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- Yep. #regrets DimensionalFusion (talk · she/her) 11:23, 1 October 2024 (UTC)
- I was doing the exact same thing three years ago

You may remember Maryvonne Le Dizès, my story today as on 28 August. Some September music was unusual: last compositions and eternal light, with Ligeti mentioned in story and music. - I took your advice to post desperate need for help/support on my talk. Nothing right now, but please watch it ;) --Gerda Arendt (talk) 13:36, 3 October 2024 (UTC)
